How to put the grip in billiards?

• When you grip the cue, do it with your index and major, you can also add the ring finger, the thumb goes on the other side making a ring or closing with the index. Never put your thumb on top of the cue. The pressure of the grip should come from the front of the hand, while the back fingers should be open at the back.

• Whenever you make the striking motion never move your wrist inward, always make a relaxed grip so that your hand is below your elbow.

• When you pick up the cue stick always find the balance point and then bend down and put your hand under the elbow, never put your hand too far behind or too far in front of the elbow. And when you make the stroke your hand should end up forward with the cue on the cloth.

Many people have problems when making the grip by gripping the cue incorrectly and affecting their game, now I am going to show you how to do it correctly:

• The grip should be comfortable and relaxed, not too firm or stiff, but not too loose either.
• For shots that require a lot of force like the serve or the break, the grip should be firmer than normal but not stiff.
• There should be a natural pivot point during the striking motion.
  The hand should be closed in front and open at the back.
• The wrist should be fairly relaxed and hanging down, with the knuckles toward the ground.
• It should be under the back foot.

And now what mistakes you should not make:
